472 PROCEEDINGS OF SECTION D. 
Of Leguminous plants other than wattles there is a considerable 
variety. Indigofera australis is common on the Silurian just 
outside the granite, but has not been found on that rock, although 
the variety minor is not uncommon there. Swainsona phacifolia 
and 8. lessertifolia are very common on the granite, much rarer 
on the Silurian. S. galegifolia has been found at one locality on 
the Silurian. Gompholobium Huegelii is common on the Silurian, 
absent from the granite. At least three specimens of Pultencea 
are found on the Silurian, but none on the granite. Daviesia 
genistifolia occurs on the Silurian, but is not common, while on 
the granite, the variety colletioides is found. It is interesting to 
note that A. Cunningham many years ago mentioned this variety 
as occurring on ‘forest land near Bathurst.” D. latifolia is 
widely spread, and has been found on granite, Silurian and Devo- 
nian, but is not common on the two former. The two small 
Desmodiums, D. brachypodiwm and D. varians, have only been 
noted on the granite, where they are common, but may occur 
outside it. 
Passing on to the Myrtecee, the gums have not been 
thoroughly worked out yet on the Silurian or Devonian. On the 
granite, Hucalyptus melliodora and EH. Stuartiana are common, 
and L. tereticornis also occurs. LH. goniocalyx has been found near 
the boundary of the granite to the west of Bathurst. On the 
Silurian, the following may be mentioned :—Z. polyanthema, E. 
eiminalis, EH. macrorrhyncha, EL. hemastoma, and on the Devo- 
nian, #. eximia, although this species has not been found close to 
Bathurst. 
Of other Myrtacee there are few. Calythrix tetragona forms 
scrubs on the Silurian, but does not occur on the granite, and 
there are one or two Leptospermums. 
The Proteacez are poorly represented in the district. Banksia 
marginata grows on the basalt of the Bald Hills, but has not 
hitherto been found elsewhere. Gvrevillea arenaria, var. canescens, 
grows on the granite, near the boundary, and on the Silurian ; 
while two more species, G. acanthifolia and G. floribunda, are 
found on the latter. Hakea acicularis occurs on Silurian and 
Devonian and H. microcarpa on Silurian and the granite of the 
Bald Hills. 
Of the Epacridez scarcely any have been found in the granite, 
although one or two may occur about the boundary, but on the 
Silurian they are abundant in number, but not very varied. 
Lewcopogon virgatus appears to specially flourish near quartz reefs, 
while Leucopogon lanceolatus has only been found on the Devonian. 
Styphelia laeta and Brachyloma daphnoides are two of the com- 
monest plants on the Silurian, but do not appear to grow on the 
granite.
